Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington, British soldier and statesman, (1893). Artist: W Roffe
Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington, British soldier and statesman, (1893). Born in Ireland, Wellesley (1769-1852) commanded the victorious British forces in the Peninsular War, for which he was promoted to Field Marshal and made a duke. In 1815 he inflicted the final defeat on Napoleon at Waterloo. Christened the Iron Duke, Wellington served as Prime Minister in 1828-1830, but his intransigent opposition to parliamentary reform led to him being compelled to resign. His death was marked by a grand funeral and the honour of a burial in St Pauls Cathedral alongside the other great British military hero of the Napoeonic Wars, Nelson. An engraving from James Taylors The Age We Live In: A History of the Nineteenth Century, From the Peace of 1815 to the Present Time, William Mackenzie, (London, 1893)
